Theconductive member 13A may extend from the second circuit CK2 along a side SS of the second substrate SUB2 to a bottom surface SB of the second substrate SUB2. For example, a conductive material (e.g., silver paste, conductive ink containing copper or other conductive particles, or metal) may be formed on thesecond circuit board 11 by printing or photolithography process, etc., to form theconductive member 13A, but not limit thereto. - The
conductive member 13A and thecontrol board 12 may be electrically connected through an anisotropic conductive film, a flexible printed circuit board, or a combination of the above.

FIG. 13 andFIG. 14 are schematic views of an electronic device during splicing according to some embodiments of the disclosure. Referring toFIG. 13 andFIG. 14 , differences between anelectronic device 1B and one of theelectronic device 1A shown inFIG. 7 toFIG. 12 are as follows. In theelectronic device 1B, multipleconductive members 13A are disposed on opposite sides of thesecond circuit board 11. For example, theconductive members 13A may be disposed on both sides of thesecond circuit board 11 parallel to the first direction D1, but not limited thereto. - According to some embodiments, as shown in
FIG. 13 andFIG. 14 , theelectronic device 1B may include multiplesecond circuit boards 11, and theelectronic device 1B may further includemultiple connectors 18. Theconnectors 18 are disposed on at least two sides of the second circuit boards 11 (e.g., two sides parallel to the first direction D1, two sides parallel to the second direction D2, all sides). Thesecond circuit boards 11 are spliced together through theconnectors 18 to form a larger size display. - According to some embodiments,
multiple connectors 18 and multipleconductive members 13A are disposed, for example, alternately on a side of thesecond circuit board 11 parallel to the first direction D1, and theconnectors 18 are disposed at intervals on a side of thesecond circuit board 11 parallel to the second direction D2, but not limited thereto. According to some embodiments, theconnectors 18 may be magnetic bumps. For example, inFIG. 14 , theconnectors 18 disposed on a left side and an upper side of the each of thesecond circuit boards 11 may be N poles of magnets, and theconnectors 18 disposed on a right side and a lower side of the each of thesecond circuit boards 11 may be S poles of magnets. In this way, based on that the opposite poles will attract one another, but the like poles will repel one another, a foolproof effect may be provided when aligning. It should be understood that the design of the N poles and the S poles may be changed according to different needs, and not limited thereto. - According to some embodiments, although not shown, multiple
second circuit boards 11 spliced together may be supported by a metal bracket; alternatively, thesecond circuit boards 11 may be supported by a larger carrier board, and an area of the carrier board, for example, is greater than or equal to a sum of areas of thesecond circuit boards 11. -
FIG. 15 andFIG. 16 are schematic views of an electronic device during splicing according to some embodiments of the disclosure. Referring toFIG. 15 andFIG. 16 , differences between anelectronic device 1C and one of theelectronic device 1B shown inFIG. 13 andFIG. 14 are as follows.

The color filter layer includes a red filter pattern PR and a green filter pattern PG, but not limited thereto. - According to some embodiments, an area of the third substrate SUB3 may be equal to the area of the
second circuit board 11. Through disposing the third substrate SUB3 having thelight conversion layer 19 correspondingly to multiple light-emittingboards 10, visibility of splicing seams may be reduced and an overall visual effect may be improved. - According to some embodiments, although not shown, the
electronic device 1C may also include multiplesecond circuit boards 11, andsecond circuit boards 11 may be spliced together throughmultiple connectors 18 to form a larger size display.

In addition, disposing the light-emitting boards adjacent to each other helps to reduce a size of gaps between the light-emitting boards to facilitate realization of visually seamless. Furthermore, disposing the control board below the second circuit board helps to reduce a border of the second circuit board to facilitate realization of high resolution or narrow border design.
